Russo, City Manager FROM: Yael Y. Londono, HR & Risk Management Director DATE: 9/15/2016 Renewal of Property, Casualty,Auto, Workers Comp RE: Insurance with Brown & Brown/Preferred Government Insurance Trust (PGIT) RECOMMENDATION: It is recommended that the City Commission approve the attached resolution to renew the City's Property, Liability, Auto, and Workers Compensation insurance with the Preferred Government Insurance Trust (PGIT)and/or Brown & Brown Insurance for the period of October 1, 2016 through September 30, 2017 in an amount not to exceed $1,000,000.00. REASONS: The renewal premium for the Commercial Package Policy (Property, Liability, and Auto) and Workers Compensation is $915,043.00 which is $36,949.10 or 4.20% more than last year ($878,123.90). The contributing factor for the premium increase is due to claims, payroll and additional property. We are currently on the second year of a two year rate guarantee on the Commercial Package Policy. Additionally, staff is allocating $84,957.00 for deductibles and for additional premiums expected upon the completion of capital projects such as Gateway Park, which will be added to the property insurance during the upcoming fiscal year. 136 J Staff worked closely with Brown & Brown (Robert Hollander) to review possible courses of action to reduce premiums to include increasing our deductibles in certain coverage and the feasibility of self-insurance in areas that we as a City have had good claims experience. Based on the available options, renewal with PGIT with the coverage and terms • indicated is our best, most cost effective, option. In sum, staff recommends renewal of the Brown & Brown/Preferred Governmental Insurance Trust (PGIT) proposal for the Package Policy and Workers Compensation and miscellaneous insurances as attached. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The City currently has Commercial Insurance Package (Property, Casualty, and Auto) and Workers' Compensation insurance through PGIT which is a premier insurance organization for public entities and is a non-assessable Trust approved by the Florida State Legislature. The PGIT board of trustees has elected to purchase an extremely conservative excess of loss insurance structure which provides PGIT members several levels of protection that reinsurance does not. PGIT's excess of loss policies list every individual member a named insured, giving every member direct access to the insurance company for payment of claims. Public Risk Underwriters (PRU), which is a premier insurance service organization for public entities and is part of Brown & Brown, is the underwriting group that tailors customized insurance services and products for the City. The City has had a Commercial Package Policy (Property, Casualty, and Auto) and Workers Compensation insurance coverage with PGIT since October 1, 2003. Previous to this date, from July 1, 2001 through October 1, 2003, insurance coverage was split between First Specialty Insurance for Property and Coregis Insurance for General Liability coverage and with the Florida League of Cities for Workers Compensation. FUNDING SOURCE: Funding is available in the 2-5132 (Risk Management) operating accounts for the Commercial Package Policy and funding is available in each department's 424000 (Workers Comp Insurance) account for the Workers Compensation Policy.
